That's an unexpected comment from a star who gives out an air of fitting in with the "fraternity". The admission from Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra comes on Headlines Today's weekly interview show Star Trek. In a conversation with the channel's Entertainment Editor Anna M.M. Vetticad, Priyanka points out that she's a person lost in her own world filled with work, work and more work. "I'm boring in my personal life," she says.

Snapshots from Star Trek with Priyanka Chopra

'I'm boring in my personal life'

'I'm trying not to fill Akshay's shoes'

'I almost cried when I got the national award'

'I'm a psychotic workaholic'

'It's fake to support a cause because it will look good'

"Boring" is a situation that she enjoys. After all, she's finally got her first national award in her hands, and she's bagged the job of Khatron ke Khiladi's new host. So does she think she can fill action man Akshay Kumar's shoes? For that answer, plus Priyanka's take on cockroaches and maggots, on national awards, stars who don't do charity and others who don't speak up when they should, tune in to Star Trek.

Priyanka Chopra is on Star Trek with Anna M.M. Vetticad on Sunday, March 28, at 7 p.m. on Headlines Today.
